Gilchrist Construction Company named as a recipient of the National HIRE Award

November 2013

Congratulations to our workforce!

Gilchrist Construction Company is very honored to be named as a recipient of the HIRE Award for our efforts in the field of workforce development. GCC was nominated for this prestigious award based upon the implementation of the WorkKeys assessments and National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) in our organization. Our nomination was based upon the attached case study published by the ACT organization.

The article (and link) below appeared in the U. S. News & World Report; we accepted the award last week at the Close-It Summit in Washington, D.C.

This award and recognition is truly a testament to the quality work that our craftsmen and women put in place each day. Again, congratulations to all GCC employees and thanks for all that you do.
